Goodhands Tonight

Lyrics

[O my goodness! Ugh, ugh, ugh! Try me!
 Upset me this time of the mornin'!]
 Hmmm! I guess you got my letter
 Hmmm! Well every word I said was true
 But just in case your postman breaks a leg
 I thought I'd get another message off to you
 Hmmm! I settled down in Paris
 Hmmm! I get to love them weekends too
 I'd like to pitch a tent by your back fence
 And yell and scream all night this message overdue:
 "I'd just like to hold you, enfold you and make it right
 But it's nice to know you are in good hands tonight"
 Oops! Hmm! I never had good timing
 Hmmm! I'm late again, thats why you're through
 But please ignore the time, enjoy the ride, girl
 And let the meaning and the message sing to you:
 "I'd just like to hold you, enfold you and make it right
 But it's nice to know you are in good hands tonight, yes"
 Do I seem alright? S'pose I'll be alright
 'Specially when the sky is so blue
 But if she's sad of eyes with deep blue sighs
 Let me sing this song again just like it's new
 Oooh! Well baby, here's my final letter
 Hmmm! But perhaps that's really not quite true
 Woa! 'Cause if your friend was right and you really called last night
 To ask the question could my message mean 'I do'
 "I'd just like to hold you, enfold you and make it right
 But it's nice to know you are in good hands tonight"
 (Etc.)
